Abstract:

The accumulated experience of the Optika Scientific Manufacturing Company in the creation of equipment for processing large-scale optical items by controllable shaping made it possible to bring a new series of machines into production. Long-term experience in the operation of machines of various modifications, designs, and kinematic implementations has shown that they work reliably and can process optical items with a complicated surface shape and can be guaranteed to achieve a quality that meets the criterion of an rms deviation of λ/40−λ/80 (wavelength λ=0.6328 μm).

Keywords:
